Heritage Strategy

Vision

The Heritage Strategy defines a ten-year plan that is a reflection of Langley’s unique history, its communities and its way of life that will enhance the sustainability and long-term viability of heritage resources in the Township. The natural, cultural and built heritage of Langley defines its identity, gives it a distinct character, and contributes to the residents’ quality of life. The Heritage Strategy respects these cherished values, and embeds them in its recommendations.

The Vision of this Plan has been derived from consultation with the broader community, and reflects a community values-based approach to heritage resource management. The Heritage Strategy has been based on an analysis of the existing challenges and opportunities through consultation with Township staff, community stakeholders, heritage program participants and the general public. A number of significant community values emerged from the program of community consultation that forms the foundation of the Plan’s recommendations. Through the various stakeholder and community meetings and workshops, the following vision was developed for the Township’s heritage program:
